Achievements – 6 root canal treatments,recent development of fissure
because of inadequate chewing of food as no teeth left.Likely to go for a
denture by this year end.

We were 32 of us when Raj was
18,he explored his freedom he tried some best eateries and popular snack corners
around the colleges.

We were tried on hard, chewy,
sticky, sweet ,tangy food products, Initially we enjoyed the textures and flavors but slowly we realized we were intoxicated with high proportion of sugar which caused cavitiesand black linings on
teeth...There were nights whenmolar and canines couldn't see each other.

There was lot of sufferings we
came across during night.Our owner
scrubbed us only in mornings for
a couple of seconds. We never enjoyed a
relaxing massage of the brush and minty
paste.

He rarely washed us after having
meals. We smelled, stink ed and covered with plague all over us. We all longed
for some fresh tangy fruits and vegetables
for some nourishment.

Soon the day arrived when our biggest molar
had given up as he was screwed with cavities and was bleeding.

In a days time we visited our
Spa care unit(Dental Clinic).What an experience guys,we were scrubbed,bleached
and jet sprayed. As been Incisor we recover faster but 6 of our molars had no
chance of improvement left. That’s when Root canal was done to all of them.

I think Root canal must be a
painful procedure as we had no cutting and chewing job for a change.It was only liquid that was
gulped in for a day.

Medical visit had increased and
there was a control on food types .We were losing our siblings one after other.
the most devastating phase of life is when you helplessly see your dear one dying before you.

Raj is 28 now and has lost his
confidence to smile,his speech has changed and diet is limited to soft and
watery supplements!

We are 8 of us-four above and 4
below.We have lot of emptiness besides us.

The moral of my story is please care for your
body and its part. Once gone you cannot recover them.

Learning

Brush your
teeththoroughly
at least twice a day, for two minutes each time.

Spend time moving the bristles at and below
the gum line, where it is most important to clean.

Floss your teethdaily
and after any food that will stick in your teeth.

Visit your dentist at least every six months
and every time that you have a problem with your teeth.

Care for your body part
before they perishes away.
